Phew! What a scorcher!

Just got back home to the Northeast of England from a couple of days out
family walking in the Scottish Highlands. On Thursday we had a ramble around
Glenfinnan and the railway viaduct made famous in the recent Harry Potter
films. It was hard to believe that it was the end of October as we headed
off in T-shirts. Thank God the midges didn't put in an appearance. I only
dare venture to this part of the world once summer is over and the critters
have said their last goodbyes.
Seriously though, it was oh so very strange to be sitting outside the static
caravan we'd hired at Corpach, near Fort William, on Thursday evening. It
was 9pm and still felt as warm as any evening we've had sitting outside our
tent in Cornwall in August!!! If this is what global warming is all about, I
could grow to like it.
On a different note, does anyone know what the cave-like feature is that can
be clearly seen in Glen Coe? I suspect it must be a natural feature, but I
have often wondered whether it might be man-made. The feature I'm referring
to is on the right-hand side as you head up Glen Coe. It's very high up on
the rock face and can be seen just after the large expanse of water called
Loch Achtriochtan. On the OS map it's called Ossian's Cave. Does anyone have
any information about it?
Regards... David Allan.
